Funerary Lady - C116
He had to calm down and investigate slowly. He had to clear the mist layer by layer to find the truth.
Liu Qing and I were silent for a while. At this moment, we had already stood at the foot of the mountain.
“Let’s go up.”
“What’s on this mountain?”
Although Liu Qing’s expression was not very obvious, I could still see that there was a trace of seriousness within his unbridled actions.
What could it be that made him so concerned about it?
“Follow me, and you will know.”
As Liu Qing said that, he led the way in front of me. I could see that there were still many footprints on the mountain road.
It was obvious that Liu Qing had followed this path down the mountain, and the footprints were new. It seemed that he had only just left the mountain when he appeared in the village.
So, during this period of time, his daily life was all on the mountain?
This was way too exaggerated.
After following Liu Qing up the mountain for a distance, I became a little tired.
The season was really unsuitable for climbing up the mountain. The mountain was covered with thick snow, and even though there were already footprints on the mountain, I was still a step away from falling down.
Under such circumstances, the difficulty of walking on the mountain path could be said to be several times higher than normal.
I panted as I followed behind Liu Qing, but Liu Qing’s condition was pretty good. Firstly, he probably walked the mountain road more, and secondly, his physical strength was already rather good.
The two of us, one in front of the other, walked for a long time before we finally reached the grave.
“What did you bring me here for?”
This graveyard isn’t a good place to go, especially after that woman was dug out. I almost lost my life here.
However, now that he thought about it, all the traces he had left behind when he had dug out that woman had been thoroughly smoothed out. A thick layer of snow had been blown over here by the wind, and all the traces had been covered by it.
“It’s all covered up. I can’t tell what happened.”
I couldn’t help but sigh and then told Liu Qing about what happened that night.
He was not too surprised. After all, he already knew a lot about the matters of the village.
I just said the same thing that I did:
“Yeah, it’s all covered up. It’s like the sin of a human being. It will slowly be forgotten as time passes.
But… Could it be completely erased? Karma will always exist …. ”
Causality … All spells were useless, while Karma was not empty.
In that case, how many fruits would there be left in this village before it ended?
Was he really going to let the entire village die with him?
Also, the Old God Wang, does he really have the ability to communicate with the world, and can he really change the cause and effect?
The heavens did not spare him. There were many things that were destined to happen …
At that moment, I saw a patch of white where I was. It looked a little dry and looked different from the white of the snow around me.
This thing isn’t that far away from me. I slowly walk over and take a look at the white thing before inhaling a breath of cold air.
It was the corpse of a white fox. Its eyes were wide open and it looked bloodshot.
If this is a human being, I can understand that he saw something terrible before he died.
But it’s just a fox in front of me… Could it be that even foxes would feel fear when they saw something strange?
But thinking about it, it was possible that all animals were intelligent. Half a year ago, on the day of his adoptive father’s death, the black cat suddenly wanted to see something terrifying and then died.
Looking carefully, there seems to be some black stuff in the mouth of this fox. I slowly approached it and felt a wave of nausea.
The fox must have been dead for several days. It looked a little dry. Its mouth was slightly open, and its sharp teeth could be clearly seen.
At this moment, the fox had quite a few flies and ants in its mouth.
When all of these things were gathered together and piled up together, it looked extremely disgusting.
The corpse of the fox was located right at the graveyard. Was there something strange about the fox’s death?
“Come on, you can’t tell much from the corpses. Just follow me, I’ll show you something else.”
After saying that, Liu Qing brought Lingling and I to walk around the grave area. In this circle, we actually found a lot of dead animals, including foxes, rabbits, and wild chickens.
These corpses looked rather scattered, but they all had one thing in common. They all looked like they died in a manner that was very similar to humans …
Fear.
A bone-deep fear. What did these animals see before they died?
Even I felt that it was ridiculous to ask such a question, but wasn’t it even more ridiculous to ask what was happening in front of us right now? Why did this happen?
I bitterly smiled, and it was at this time that Liu Qing said to me:
“Let’s go, up the mountain.”
I exhaled a breath of white air while Lingling panted heavily and dragged me along. The few of us walked with great difficulty, and the further we went up the mountain, the thicker the snow.
Moreover, in some places, the snow was so cold that even the slightest mistake could cause it to shatter and fall into the snow.
This feeling of having never lived in the countryside of the north was something he could not experience. Every step he took could be said to be filled with fear and trepidation.
Along the way, we saw almost all kinds of corpses, dozens, hundreds. The more we walked up the mountain, the more bodies we saw.
Moreover, these corpses were all dried up to a similar degree. It seemed that the time of death was about the same.
In other words, a few days ago, something happened on the mountain, causing a large number of animals to die within a few days.
Moreover, the corpses of these animals were all piled up here. Only the ants and flies were slowly eating them, but no other animals treated them as food.
Just what had happened on this mountain?
The more corpses I saw, the more shocked I became. But in the end, the shock slowly turned into numbness. I didn’t know what to say anymore.
The scene in front of me was way too astonishing. It had almost exceeded my knowledge range.
It was one thing for humans to die, but even the animals in the mountains were not spared?
Seeing my astonished expression, Liu Qing pointed to a wolf’s corpse on the ground and said:
“I’ve seen all of these bodies. They died in a very strange way. They didn’t have any wounds on their bodies. They weren’t killed by any other animals, nor were they killed because of the weather or any other reasons.”
As we spoke, we had already walked to the location of the father’s grave. Since he wasn’t a villager who lived in the village to begin with and didn’t have any relatives, he didn’t have any burial grounds in the village.
This kind of person couldn’t be buried in the entire village’s great cemetery, so I found a better place for him in the area above the cemetery.
He himself was a person who liked peace and quiet. This way, it should also be very suitable for him.
Right next to my foster father’s lonely grave, I saw a very clean area. There was something that looked like a small house with a plastic quilt wrapped around it.
Beside the small house, there was a pile of ashes.
I was stunned for a moment before my expression turned strange.
“Is this your place? You sleep here every night? ”
To be able to create such a thing on the mountain, and to be beside my foster father, other than Liu Qing, who else could it be?
Hearing my question, Liu Qing nodded his head:
“Yes, comfortable, warm, and your father to accompany me.”
Lingling softly asked behind me.
“Big brother Liu Qing, aren’t you afraid?”
“What’s there to be afraid of? Isn’t there the old man accompanying me? I have nothing better to do than to talk with the old man and see if he can marry my daughter off to me. ”
If others were to say these words, they would definitely make me feel disgusted, but since Liu Qing’s character is like that, there was nothing I could do even if I disliked him.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been to see my foster father’s grave. There are too many strange things happening on the main mountain.
At this time, I saw Liu Qing walk to a place not far away from the grave of my foster father.
“I happened to see it when it died.”
